Auburn Tigers (A-)

Before this weekend, it would have been about a B. The recent run of commitments after Big Cat Weekend in Auburn has Hugh Freeze continuing to up his game heading into year two with the Tigers program.

The Tigers currently rank 6th in the 2025 recruiting class rankings according to On3.

Florida (B)

The Gators made some key off season moves in the transfer portal acquiring former Arizona State wide receiver Elijah Badger. They also bring in true freshman wide receiver Tank Hawkins and quarterback DJ Lagway .

Badger and Hawkins should emerge on the field quickly and Lagway should have some playing time behind returning starting quarterback Graham Mertz as well.

Former Florida Gators quarterback Jaden Rashada did make waves and negative headlines for head coach Billy Napier in a lawsuit against him.

Georgia (A)

Head coach Kirby Smart had the Bulldogs finish with the top recruiting class in the country in 2023 according to On3. Smart also made some key acquisitions in the transfer portal with wide receivers London Humphreys and Colbie Young while at running back adding former Florida Gators starting running back Trevor Etienne.

With that being said, the Bulldogs program still has its fair share of off field issues which knock them down to an A instead of an A+
